Overlord Mor'Morokk hits harder than a standard elite of his level, however this quest is quite doable either solo or with a helper.

Because of the nature of the quest, you have only a second or two after you start this quest before he becomes hostile. For any class that relies on range or abilities like charge this will add an extra layer of complexity to this fight.

Once you reduce him to about 20% of his hitpoints, he will revert to being a friendly target and run off wimpering into the swamp.

Warlocks can easily solo this as he can be feared indefinately.

All talk about crazy kite strategies aside, this guy is, simply put, not soloable for the average player.

The pre-requisite for this quest is the The Brood of Onyxia chain ( https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=1170 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=1170 ) which in turn has a pre-requisite of Identifying the Brood ( https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=1169 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=1169 )

I've just done this quest with a level 47 Paladin, very very tough fight. The fight itself lasted a good 8-10 minutes, used bubble twice and Blessing of Protection, as well as Divine Favour (I'm Holy spec) whenever it was off cool down, and the same for my jewel crafting owl. Great challenge though.

He has just over 14,000 health, and as stated, he gives up at around about 30%. As for the stuns, they seem to be a proc on his weapon, judging by the fact that the stuns are every so many seconds exactly, the stun also lasts for 4 seconds, so it's best to heal pre-emptively if you're a healer (although I wouldn't try this solo if I wasn't a healer or a class that can kite).

I'm currently going back through to get achievements so I'm doing a lot of quests I skipped or omitted throughout my leveling career and I found a bug on this one. I'm a frost mage with decent gear, so obviously it's no problem: he went hostile, I novad and frostbolted him down to 1% health. 35k damage later, he's still at 1%. If you damage him too fast he apparently bugs out and will not run away. So for any higher level going back through, chip away at him instead of blowing him up. I ice lance spammed him until he went friendly again at 30%.

Mok bugs out if you burn him past 30% way too quickly (I mangle-crit him at level 80 all the way down to 1%.) Be sure to just poke him with a fishing pole or something if you're way overlevelled.

Bug Workaround

This quest has a minor bug. If you hit Overlord Mok too hard he may not become ""scared"" and run away. Instead, his health will reduce to 1 and he'll never die. If this happens, you'll have to drop aggro or run away to get out of combat (or kite him to Orgimmar for a good laugh). If you are a high-level player trying to finish this quest, try killing him with white-damage only such as bare fists or wands. If you kill him slowly enough then it should work.

A story about this quest, and the fun of kiting him to Org. :)

Doing Loremaster, I did this quest, killed him too fast, and got the bug. Well, I thought of this as the perfect chance to troll Orgrimmar, and I started kiting him to Org!

As a shadow priest, it took me about 90 minutes, and it was awesome when I got there. Everyone and their dog was attacking him, he was running everywhere, targeting everyone. Well after a very long fight over aggro, the group of people attacking him managed to kite him to Thrall. Thrall didn't do a damn thing, just stood there watching everyone in Org attack a simple ogre. So, everyone attacked for their weapon skill achievements.

Well, it seemed to be at the perfect time, because a group of Alliance doing For the Alliance was heading to Thralls chamber! At the time they arrived in Org, Mok'Morokk had been there for about an hour. Well, I'm sure you could imagine the Alliances face when they saw everybody in Org, low levels, 80s, all crowded around an ogre with 1 health. Everyone ran in, and as you can expect, got raped to death. It was great, the Alliance attacked just at the right time. There were bodies all around, most of them still not released, as they were watching just what the hell was going on. Our server is very Alliance populated, and For the Alliance raids are very common, and most of them are succesfull, but this raid was absolutely fantastic. Well, the ogre just stayed there, everyone still attacking him.

Another hour passed, and people were still there wailing on him. Numerous Knuckle Sandwich achievements went off, and people started getting bored of him. I Mind Controlled him to mess with people, but when the MC ended, he despawned. :(

About 30 mins. later, an Alliance raid attacked Org and killed Thrall. There was no ogre to protect Thrall this time!

Just thought I'd share this little story, as I was rolling on the floor laughing the whole time. Have a nice day! :)

He despawns not far from Mudcrush Durtfeet after he flees.

I guess Mudcrush was really, really hungry.
